To the Honourable the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly of Queensland. The PETITION of citizens of Queensland, draws the attention of the House to the New Laws regarding Dangerous Dogs now in force in many Shires.
Your petitioners, therefore request the House to amend the Laws to ensure each alleged dangerous dog is assed on its individual merits, by an Animal Behaviour Expert e.g. Dr Cam Day and not by appearance alone. We further Petition that animals falling into this category are housed humanely at the nearest RSPCA in lieu of using Council Dog Pound Facilities, where contact with humans is so poor and so limited, during any litigation.
